  • I think it’s because the aroma of coffee is so important to its flavor.

    My wife prefers flavored coffees and I shy away from them.

    I thought I’d gotten them mixed or there was residue in my coffee maker because my coffee kept tasting sweet and I don’t add sugar or use sweeteners at all.

    Across the room was a candle in a jar, lid off, unlit, hazelnut coffee scented.

    ACROSS THE ROOM it was enough to make me think my coffee was actually sweet. So yeah, it’s all about the smell.













  • Reading the list, your issues with Gale are temporary until they can fix his magic item eating UI. Then they will roll it back so he is as needy as he ever was, I imagine.

    I also totally get what you’re referring to with him. As a guy, I found him repellant for exactly the reasons you specify. But I also found him realistically repellant and clueless.

    Then on my third playthrough I let him sacrifice himself, and he grew in my estimation.

    Poor guy was taken in, loved, and then abandoned by a goddess. Even if for good reason, it’s understandable how damaged he was by it all.

    A new monk arrived at the monastery. He was assigned to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. He noticed, however, that they were copying copies, not the original books. The new monk went to the head monk to ask him about this. He pointed out that if there were an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the other copies.

    The head monk said, ‘We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son.’ The head monk went down into the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original.

    Hours later, nobody had seen him, so one of the monks went downstairs to look for him. He heard a sobbing coming from the back of the cellar and found the old monk leaning over one of the original books, crying.

    He asked what was wrong.

    ‘The word is ‘celebrate,’ not ‘celibate’!’ sobbed the head monk.
